Well there's proof that he definitely intended to work to them to death, but the whole "gas chamber" thing is debatable. Doesn't matter much at this point, cause Hitler failed because he was a horrible general.

Man, so many wrong points. There are many good history books that might help you.
1) If Hitler was so bad and wanted to "wipe the jews out" - Then why did Hitler say when the Doctor that cared for his Mother, the jewish doctor said "Do you remember me? Hitler said, "Yes, I remember you, you were good to my Mother..you may leave." (also Hitlers Government allow Einstein to emigrate to America) a tactical mistake if one looked ahead but he did.

2) Look up "GRÖFAZ" Größter Feldherr Aller Zeiten - he was a great man and if he had won-we'd not question it.

Yet the wars that Germany got into with the three major powers (UK/USSR/UK) all could have been avoided or significantly delayed if Hitler had made different choices. In the Summer of 1939, reclaiming parts of Poland was not an issue of such great urgency as to knowingly get into a major war with Britain and thereby gamble everything.

The so-called 'wonder weapons' were years away as was the bulking of the German navy and the mass production of German strategic bombers. Waiting a few years, solidifying gains, and strengthening the German military would have made a lot more sense.

Someone else whose education in this topic includes Kershaw and what he learned from BBC documentaries, most likely.

To claim that his passion for his own German people and heritage was 'questionable' shows you are unqualified to even pretend to have an opinion on this topic. Please leave the thread and go read some books.

Nothing to say about the military officials who betrayed him and ignored his orders then, no?

Your argument consists of silly claims about what books I've supposedly read, I won't even bother, dear. I grew up in Germany by the way and have met people who fought for Germany, women who got raped by Russians, etc. No BBC needed.

As for generals who betrayed him, some had good reasons. These were Germans soldiers. Some here seem to think Germany is/was Hitler and nobody/nothing else. Without these men Hitler would have been nothing. Germany existed long before Hitler, it survived Hitler's failure, more or less. The Hitler years are only a short few years in German history.

If I had to pick a few reasons to make him look good
Called out and tried to remove the Jews
Cared about racial purity
Cared about motherhood
Incorporated Austria
Reclaimed areas lost after WWI
Restored German military power
Successfully applied Blitzkrieg
Uniforms by Boss :-p
Scientific research, against cancer, smoking, etc, etc.
Fought well in WWI

There are many good reasons that are better than those posted in that silly article.

Compared to some of the other issues this may not be an important one but it is one I feel can be an example for all of us in a world where natural habitats are shrinking and waistlines are expanding.

Hitler as well as Himmler were not vegetarians. According to what was reported at the time each of them were abstemious (restrained in the consumption of food or alcohol) but their regular diets included both meat and vegetables as well as starches. Both set an example of eating what was necessary to maintain health and well-being, one that we should well follow.

Neither man was known to drink to excess although both enjoyed good German beer and wines.

It was only later during the war years that both men as well as the general population followed more restricted diets due to food rationing.

On a lighter note, on holidays both were known to join in the feasting and were recognized as good hosts.

Irrelevant, and if anything actually means you're more likely to believe the lies of the massive de-nazification campaign waged against Germans since 1945.

I'm not debating that, i'm debating the fact that you questioned his loyalty to the German people, which makes you uneducated on the subject, regardless of what people who were raped by Russians have told you.

1. He took a broken Weimar Republic and made it the strongest nation in the world in only few years.

2. He was a Vegan and had the first animal rights laws in the world.

3. Gave families a chance to have kids and mothers were shown as heroes.

4. Battled the communists in Bavaria and ended up winning entire Germany.

5. Early on helped Spain's Francisco Franco gain control thus not allowing communism to spread there.

6. Miss treatment of Ethnic Germans in the east lead to his response in Poland. Danzig was about 90% German and they wanted Danzig so could use for transportation of railroad to connect East Prussia to main Germany. They were taxed heavily by the Polish to transfer goods across and they were taking advantage of the situation.

7. His treatment of France was very lenient and Vichy France was created. Tried to co-exist with the French instead of just murdering them. He got justice for the Versailles Treaty without trying to destroy French culture. He moved beyond WW1 while others would of done barbaric things.

8. German involvement in the east gave Finland a fighting chance to survive and also making sure no soviet involvement into Scandinavia countries. Huge, this was because it gave them a chance to go about their lives and not be over-run by communism. Though, now Sweden is ultra liberal and they are being destroyed....

9. Gave Ukraine the chance to revenge for Holodom which was huge because communists killed roughly over 10 million. Not only Ukraine but Baltic countries to get chance to have Waffen SS units. Which turned into something greater than just Germany.

10. He was the best politician ever he actually did what he said what he was going to do.. They usually lie and never act on their words.
